Usage Guidelines
•
Entering the keyword none in place of a key removes the password and disables authentication.
•
Due to security concerns the actual password that you specify in this command is encrypted using a
3DES algorithm before it appears in a saved snapshot file. Also, if you were to view this command in a
snapshot file, or boot.cfg file, it would appear in a different syntax. The syntax for this command used
for snapshot files is as follows:
ip bgp neighbor ip_address md5 key-encrypt encrypted_string
However, you should not use this syntax to actually set an MD5 password; it will not work.
•
The BGP peer is restarted after issuing this command.
